EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Southern Indiana Women’s and Men’s Golf will match up against the University of Evansville in the Battle of the Expressway Thursday at Western Hills Country Club (Mt. Vernon, Indiana) for another edition of the crosstown clash. The matches begin teeing off at 9 a.m. The last grouping will tee off near 11 a.m.
The matchup will follow a Ryder Cup-style singles format with each Screaming Eagle facing off with a Purple Ace one-on-one, looking to win more holes than the other. The 17 matches (10 men, seven women) will take place with a point being awarded to the winner of each. A tie will result in a point being halved. The trophy will be awarded to the team that has won the most points overall after the men’s and women’s scores have been tallied together.
USI and Evansville competed last year with the Aces winning in the fall in a combined score of 13-5 (7.5-2.5 men, 5.5-2.5 women). The spring match-up, which followed a different format, ended in a combined 4.5-4.5 tie with USI winning a tie-breaker.
